Hello...

Once again, I apologize for the delay in sending this out.  I went to visit my family in Miami for 10 days (with the baby) ... it was my first time hime since I moved to Seattle.  It was great being home!

On a sad personal note, some of you might remember how I have mentioned my English Bulldog over the past several years. Well, he made the trip cross country, but it was difficult for him...he was showing signs of heart failure before the trip, but apparently, it was too much for him.  He had been declining for the past 5 months. So, we had to make the difficult decision to put dear old Nigel to sleep.  He was my faithful companion for 9 years.  We miss him dearly.

Anyway, this newsletter is full of Founders Day notices - thanks for sending them in! 

Until next time (hopefully, next week!)...

AOT,

Annie
